Origin by Dan Brown
5.0

This was a whirlwind of a read. I really enjoyed it and am resisting the urge to start researching the main premise of the book.

For most of the book, I didn't even know who the bad guy was, which is a testimony to how good of a writer Dan Brown is. Every time I thought I had it figured out, someone would reveal a new piece of evidence or say something that changed my assumption on the bad guy. And just when I thought I was wrong again, I got proved right! This is definitely a book that I can see myself reading again, just to see if there are more hints early on as to who the bad guy was. Maybe I just missed them all!
